List of World Championships in Athletics medalists (men)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Men have contested events at the IAAF World Championships in Athletics since its inauguration in 1983. The top three athletes in each event win gold, silver and bronze medals, respectively. A one-off 1976 World Championships in Athletics was held for the men's 50 kilometres race walk only, as the International Olympic Committee excluded that event for the Olympic athletics programme that year.
